Recording with Rhys
I have a co-op student this semester, a young fellow named Rhys who wants to be a worship leader and a musician someday. He has been helping me in the office with some of the day-to-day activities of my scripture song ministry. He does things like create video canvases for Spotify, enter and sync all of my song lyrics into Musixmatch (the service which provides lyrics to many of the music stream sites), and more.
He even held the camera for one of my recent walking and singing music videos! He's been a lot of help.
As part of my work with him, I wanted to show him how to write and record songs. Today we wrapped up recording his first worship song, called "Together We Believe." I can't wait until it's released and you can hear it! It's a very nice song, and I think it will be wonderful to use it in church congregations. When he gets the song uploaded to Spotify and Apple Music, I'll be sure to share a link so you can follow him and enjoy his work too!
In a day-and-age when so many teenagers are obsessed with gender-identity, wokeness, and selfcenteredness, it's refreshing to hear of a young person who wants to follow God, and dedicate his life to God's purposes! I'm blessed just to have the opportunity to work with him!
Thanks God, for you are still at work among us!
